The trio, gathered at Christina’s home for a premiere watch party with friends and family, engaged in a lively Q&A with fans, filled with laughter and good-natured ribbing.
Hints of Season 2 Drama and a Potential Breakup

This potential storyline adds fuel to the already existing tension stemming from Christina’s past relationship with Tarek and the dynamics between the three stars.
A Playful Competition and “Girl Power”
The lighthearted atmosphere of the Instagram Live took a competitive turn when Tarek started his own live stream after jokingly complaining about not fitting on the chair with Heather. This sparked a playful battle for viewers, with Heather and Christina championing “girl power” as their combined viewership surpassed Tarek’s.
The friendly rivalry led to a hypothetical scenario posed to fans: who would win in a house-flipping competition if Heather and Christina teamed up against Tarek? The overwhelming response from viewers, both on the women’s and Tarek’s live streams, favored the female duo.

A “Flip Off” Girls’ Edition Spinoff?
Fueled by their playful dynamic and the overwhelming support from fans, Heather and Christina teased the possibility of a spinoff series. While they acknowledged that a second season of “The Flip Off” depends on Tarek’s agreement and audience reception, the idea of a female-led house-flipping show, tentatively titled “The Flip Off Girls’ Edition,” clearly intrigued them. They envisioned empowering women with the skills and knowledge to flip houses successfully.
The Instagram Live ended with playful banter and coy smiles, leaving fans speculating about the future of “The Flip Off” and the potential for a spinoff that could showcase the combined talents and undeniable chemistry of Christina and Heather. “The Flip Off” airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on HGTV.
